    Apparently, he tore down some equipment after the game.

    Kicking dents into lockers used to be normal in the playoffs. Before punitive Stern took the emotion out of the game.

    Displays of emotion were almost encouraged by coaches until Stern, who loved to play judge..

    I remember when Walton punched out some lockers in the locker room after a loss in the Finals. That started the Blazers winning the Finals.

    ...as much as I dislike Choke Harden, he barely tapped the curtain for it to fall over (looked like a poorly constructed middle school curtain to me) :dunno:

    Come on, we all know there's a ninja that lives in his beard and comes out and becomes "Angry James Harden" for him.

    Is this before or after Houston goes on its free fall?

    And no, he won't get suspended. At worst he might get fined like 5 bucks.

    The curtain gave Harden a taste of his own floppingness

    What finally did it? Let me guess: You said Ridnour is playing like a wimp on the Sonics board. You titled a thread, "Fire Pritchard!" at noon exactly at the Midseason Trade Deadline when he kept LaFrentz. You made fun of Kobe on the Laker board when he was busted, by playing a girl poster who kept saying, "Tee hee." (ESPN banned me several other times too.)

    Man, I NEVER called a player a witch-killer. You deserved it.

    Harden is such a pussy.

    Wes would have gone after a table or chair, maybe a garbage can.

    In my day they took on a 500-pound complex of 12 players' lockers.

    Now they can't beat a curtain.

    Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain for I am the great and powerful Oz! When Harden turned that ball over without getting a FOUL call it was the last straw for him....he was thinking he'd get free throws for sure
